Two heartsick Hong Kong cops (Takeshi Kaneshiro and Tony Leung Chiu Wai), both jilted by ex-lovers, cross paths at the Midnight Express take-out food stand, where the ethereal pixie waitress Faye (Faye Wong) works. Anything goes in Wong’s gloriously shot and utterly unexpected charmer, which cemented the sex appeal of its gorgeous stars and forever turned canned pineapple and the Mamas \u0026amp; the Papas’ “California Dreamin’ ” into tokens of romantic longing.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"header_lvl2 quillgray\"\u003eFILM INFO\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"film-meta-list\"\u003e\n\u003cli itemprop=\"countryOfOrigin\" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/Country\"\u003e\u003cspan itemprop=\"name\"\u003eHong Kong \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1994\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-duration-field=\"\"\u003e102 minutes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-aspect-ratio-field=\"\"\u003e1.66:1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli itemprop=\"inLanguage\" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/Language\"\u003e\u003cspan itemprop=\"name\"\u003eCantonese \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cb\u003eSpine #453\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"header_lvl2 hideSmall\" data-feature-title-field=\"\"\u003eDIRECTOR-APPROVED 4K + UHD + BLU-RAY SPECIAL EDITION FEATURES\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-features-list\" data-special-features-field=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4K digital restoration, with 5.1 surround DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrack, both supervised and approved by director Wong Kar Wai\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne 4K UHD disc of the film and one Blu-ray with the film and special features\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInterview from 2002 with cinematographer Christopher Doyle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEpisode of \u003cem\u003eMoving Pictures\u003c\/em\u003e from 1996 featuring interviews with Wong and Doyle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeleted scenes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrailer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePLUS: An essay by critic Amy Taubin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eCover by Sarah Habibi, based on an original design by Nessim Higson\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Criterion","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53575453344074,"sku":"chungkingexpressbluray","price":40.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/8894\/4822\/files\/IMG_3836_8ac99b94-05a2-4497-8fa9-2b6c26bdb7d8.jpg?v=1765473894","url":"https:\/\/littledeercomics.ie\/products\/chungking-express","provider":"Little Deer Comics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
